Lyrics
怪しい雲が流れてゆく
灰色空模様
雨のち晴れはない
みんな見て見ぬふりしてる
そう思ってたけど
本当に見えてない？
ayashii kumo ga nagarete yuku
haiiro soramoyou
ame nochi hare wa nai
minna mite minu furi shiteru
sou omotteta kedo
hontou ni mietenai?
ここは地獄じゃなくて
だけど楽園じゃない
諸行無常の常よ
涅槃はまだかしら
koko wa jigoku janakute
dakedo rakuen janai
shogyoumujou no tsune yo
nehan wa mada kashira
「一番上」より「唯一」の
花にはなれません
おまじないはヤメテ
サラバ幾千光年の
孤独も憂鬱も
拳で粉砕さ
“ichiban’ue” yori “yuiitsu” no
hana ni wa naremasen
omajinai wa yamete
saraba ikusen kounen no
kodoku mo yuuutsu mo
kobushi de funsai sa
ここじゃまるで平凡
わたし没個性みたい
三千世界の果てで
空虚とおんなじよ
koko ja marude heibon
watashi botsukosei mitai
sanzensekai no hate de
kuukyo to onnaji yo
そんな馬鹿げた話
釈迦も笑い飛ばして
笑えないことなんて
この世にゃありません
sonna bakageta hanashi
shaka mo waraitobashite
waraenai koto nante
kono yo nya arimasen
ここじゃまるで平凡
わたし没個性みたい
三千世界の果てで
空虚とおんなじよ
ここは地獄じゃなくて
だけど楽園じゃない
諸行無常の常よ
涅槃はまだかしら
koko ja marude heibon
watashi botsukosei mitai
sanzensekai no hate de
kuukyo to onnaji yo
koko wa jigoku janakute
dakedo rakuen janai
shogyoumujou no tsune yo
nehan wa mada kashira
Translation
Suspicious clouds drift by
The sky looks gray
There is no sunshine after rain
Everyone pretends to ignore them
That’s what I thought, but
Are they really not seeing them?
This is not hell
But it’s also not paradise.
It’s all about the impermanence of worldly things.
Will I ever reach nirvana?
I can’t be the “only” flower
Rather than the “topmost”
I’ll quit chanting the spell
Farewell, thousands of light-years
Of loneliness and melancholy
I’ll smash them with my fist
I’m so ordinary here
I feel like I’m not unique
At the end of the whole universe
I’m just the same as emptiness
That’s such a ridiculous story.
Even Shakyamuni laughed off at it
There’s nothing in this world
That can’t be laughed at
I’m so ordinary here
I feel like I’m not unique
At the end of the whole universe
I’m nothing but emptiness
This is not hell
But it’s also not paradise.
It’s all about the impermanence of worldly things.
Will I ever reach nirvana?
